Cfls (talk | contribs) (Language link changed from en:Columbia College (New York) to en:Columbia College, Columbia University)"

It goes to the pages https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Columbia_College_(New_York) or https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Columbia_College,_Columbia_University, both of which are errors
